For a while now, we've been seeing some truly bizarre food experiments take over social media. The formula is simple, take two things that have absolutely no business being together and put them on the same plate. And sometimes, those are foods people hold very close to their hearts. Of course, everyone is free to experiment with their food however they like. But when these combinations make their way onto the internet, they are bound to invite a few raised eyebrows. Bombay Deli by Rahul Passan, a restaurant based in England, seems to have taken the whole practice to another level. Posting a video on Instagram, they combined two extremely different food items together.

The caption read, “Chocolate covered chicken tikka anyone? You've all seen the viral strawberries and chocolate cups, but this combo takes it to a whole new level. Would you try chicken tikka and chocolate?”
